Creamy Southwest Chicken

23 Apr

This is a quick and easy recipe for those who are looking for low carb menu options. I found it when browsing my original search for low carb diets. It is one of the many great recipes published by Laura Dolson on About.com. Find the recipe here. It takes about 20 mins from start to serving [...]

Paleo Chicken Cordon Blue

18 Apr

I am loving my new menus with low carb options, but there are a few things I miss. Crunchy breaded dinners are one. On a whim I decided to make Chicken Cordon Blue. I’ve mentioned many times how much I love the cookbook “Paleo Comfort Foods”. One of my “go to” recipes is the “Fried [...]

Split Pea Soup

11 Apr

Easter was awesome. I am trying very hard to get all the chocolate out of my house, unfortunately, most of it is ending up in my mouth! It’s been a week of leftovers. My Mother prepared our family traditional Pineapple Glazed Ham. I was amazed to see she was about to throw away the bone (she NEVER [...]

Chili Cheddar Frittata

The aroma of fresh basil, sundried tomatoes and green chiles waft out of the mixing bowl [...]

Crustless Quiche

8 Feb

I used this crustless quiche recipe as a guide to make an incredible crustless quiche. Since I only used what I had on  hand, I omitted the olives and added red peppers and spinach. I also changed out the green onions for white and the bacon with bell pepper chicken sausage. From here out, this [...]

Spaghetti Squash Lasagna in a Bowl

4 Feb

This is another tasty and healthy recipe we tried from the low carb menu by Laura Dolson. Spaghetti Lasagna in a Bowl is a fantastic substitution to one of my favorite comfort foods. To be honest (and I am a bit ashamed of this fact) it’s the first time I have tried Spaghetti Squash. I [...]

Tex Mex Eggrolls

31 Jan

And the star of our Chilifest…drumroll please… Tex Mex Eggrolls Dear husband and I both decided to make something for Chilifest. I opted for the Chipotle-Black Bean Chili but he thought that this recipe on the food network for Tex Mex Eggrolls was much more exciting. He was right (as usual, but don’t tell him I said [...]
